The motorblock is a light agricultural machine, which is used for tillage, with the help of special mills. Mounted nozzles expand the range of possible work. Productivity (the amount of cultivated land per unit of time) depends on the engine and the working width of the nozzle.
Garden cultivators are used for tillage, the use of mounted devices is an additional function. There are devices with passive knives, in which all work is carried out from the tractive effort, and with constantly active.

Types of cultivators
By type of drive distinguish:
- Hand held
- Connected to the tractor.
- Motocultivators.
Мотокультиватор
Motor-cultivator - the car for processing of the earth. In comparison with the walk-behind tractor, it has a larger power reserve and a wide choice of additional equipment. Due to this, great functionality is obtained. The presence of heavy gear on the motoblock allows you to carry carts with cargo, and high power - to do more heavy work. But he is not so practical and weighs more.
Cultivators are equipped with four-stroke and two-stroke engines. The latter has a smaller resource. Four-stroke engine lasts longer and consumes less fuel.
Hand cultivator
Hand cultivator — это gardening device (cultivation, plowing, weeding, breakdown of beds) in the country. The device is interesting for its small size and ease of management. The device performed well on even and long beds. In large areas, the use of the device is impractical, too much manual work. But this solution is well suited for giving and a small area.
Features of choice and use
When choosing a cultivator, be guided by the size of the cultivated area, the availability of electricity and your preferences. Electric models are quite quiet in operation, eco-friendly, but have less power. The presence of the cord limits its use on a large area. In such cases, it is better to use a gasoline cultivator. But it is difficult to maintain, you have to pick up gasoline and oil, to maintain the working nodes, it must be done even on expensive models.
Gasoline and electric cultivators work on similar principles. You refuel or connect the device, put it on the right place and start processing. When the tiller works, you push it forward to the desired point. You should not hurry and push, use occurs with little effort. If you see that the device can not handle a certain area, then swing it in different directions. Hold the device firmly and do not let it overheat. When using the petrol option, always use a fresh mixture, this will prolong the life of the engine.
Useful tips:
- Carefully read the characteristics of the device before the acquisition, read reviews on the Internet.
- If you take a heavy machine, then buy with tubeless wheels. So, you will save yourself from various problems and their elimination.
- The oil for the device is selected in accordance with the engine speed, otherwise you will damage it.
- If the gasoline device has not been used for a long time, let it idle in order to warm up the entire system.
Cultivator prices vary widely and start. from 2 thousand r. for the manual version, and a powerful gasoline model from a well-known manufacturer can cost 300 thousand rubles.
Motoblock significantly simplify the cultivation of the land. For different size plots you can find an option. In the presence of electricity to participate and small size, it is better to use an electric cultivator. If you plan to process large areas, then only gasoline will do. Before you buy, read the reviews on your model.
Included with the technique is a set of cultivator knives. Separately bought the lugs and plow. But with the last motoblock pulls weakly and you have to lean heavily. Inspect accessories carefully before purchasing. The plow collapsed 30 minutes after use, and I bought it at TsUM. I had to weld it myself. An additional cart for the motoblock cost $ 500, I made mine for 70. In this configuration, the machine 3 years work.
The engine here is Japanese (Mitsubishi) and works very well. Only tugovat transmission and inconvenient to switch. The wheel axles in this motor block are round, it is better not to take such ones, the wheels are constantly twitching back and forth, I had to weld the grooves.
Problems identified during operation:
- Korot engine start button and makes it impossible to start, better get rid of it.
- Fragile plastic quickly broke.
- The starter quickly broke, you can’t put a metal cord in its place, only a rope.
- Over time, the gas tank rusts and it all pours into the carburetor. It is easy to clean, but it is impossible to find gaskets. I used homemade cardboard, pre-lubricated with an engine sealant. Metal carburetor is soft and brittle. Buying a new one will cost a small amount.
- Candles on the motor fly quickly, but the usual fit from Zhiguli. See that you have at least 3 pieces in stock.
- Spare parts for this tiller can not be found, only for the main parts (engine, carburetor, starter), and you can not buy everything else.
A good machine for handling the problem, I was satisfied with the purchase.
AndrewI want to share my experience on electric motor-cultivator T30 E, because there are few reviews on the Internet. I got it for my birthday. I was very pleased with such a device, my back hurt from using a shovel, and I had to use it often. We did not test the technique immediately, but it turned out to be very convenient. That's what I liked:
- In the electric model, you do not need to bother with the fuel.
- Small weight, easy to handle even a woman.
- Well plowed groomed beds and plot. He especially helped us when we planted a lawn. Plowed a fairly large area, we only need to align the rake, that's all.
A gift i very satisfiedHe fully met our expectations. For digging a plot, garden, it is indispensable.
MaksimI will share my impressions of using Cougar GT 90. A good cultivator for a small price. I have it for 5 years. It is still sold online at the same price. The main advantage - ease of management and maneuverability. I tried to work with other cultivators with friends, with my not compare. They have a lot of time switching gears, and a lot of weight makes it cumbersome.
Cultivator cultivated a plot of 30 acres in the fall and spring. I also harvest potatoes by the apparatus, instead of knives I put wheels from Zhiguli. For transportation, you can connect the cart, but I did not use it. It weighs only 55 kg, while it has good maneuverability. The engine here is GX200 - 6.5 liters. with. that is more than enough for him. There is a forward and reverse gear, cultivates to a depth of 30 cm. To ensure the engine a long job you need to frequently wash the air filter. Everything else is done fairly well and will last a long time.
I was very pleased with the purchase, I recommend this Cougar GT 90 to everyone.
